No support by the author.

This little mod will start a new thread in the forum of your choice when somebody registers.

The thread message is contained in a template, and easily customizeable on your part.

This version posts the thread when the user registers - but before he activates his email address.

Thanks to flypaper for providing a bugfix.

Installation Instructions: Import the product. Change the welcome_thread template to suit your needs. Change the setup variables in the welcome thread plugin to suit your needs.

This is a nice product but i wonder if it is possible to let new members add their intro message before they can register. I'm asking that because i know that new members will (most of the time) get involved immediately this way when they are questioned by entrance...something i've seen often with the 3.0x similar version of this addon.

For some reason I can't get this to install on the vB 3.5 RC2. Did something change from beta 4 to RC 2 that kills this?

Are you trying to install it as a product or a plugin?

That happened in RC2. I have played with it a bit but haven't had time to get into it in any depth.

You would combine this hack with the send a welcome PM to users hack.
